A list of wrestlers that came around that I simply couldn't garner any interest (support or heat) for no matter what they did or what gimmick they tried.
Barry Windham
Mike Rotunda
Samoa Joe
Shane Douglas
Sam Houston
Eric Watts
Lex Luger (biggest choker of all time)
Great Kahli (shouldn't even put him here as no one else could either)
-
The 2011 WWE roster.

Sunjay Dutt
I'm sure there are lots more on both rosters....

I like Douglas and Windham, the rest you can keep.

The Great Kahli has to be the biggest one though. Who the hell wants to watch him? Even his promos are in Punjab.

He was awful. Should NEVER have been allowed to speak...maybe do a run-in on occasion, be a bodyguard, etc... but not a regular worker.

Even his matches were painfull. Chop, kick, punch...repeat....stagge r stagger, punch....

You would think they'd learned their lesson with Giant Gonzalez (RIP).

Orton

Ted Dibiase
Big Show
Tyson Kidd

I really like his ring work.I'm not a big fan of his promos where...he...talks...lik e...this.... He has been acting way to vanilla for the past few months. I understand they have a lack of faces on Raw, but he should have a little more edge. Hugging Cena? Tagging with Jerry Lawler? If he goes back to a tweener type, I'd like him a lot better.

Your right about the...way....he....talks ....ever....so....slowly .....
And I hate the way he walks to the ring. I could make a run to Pizza Hut and come back with Pizza & wings and he'll still be walking to the ring.
But that RKO he did in mid air on Evan Born while Borne did his shoooting star press was sick!! :)
He has complained to management that his charactor needs to be heel. Not face but as usual creative thinks they know what their doing....
-
I hate the way Orton has to stick that jaw out everywhere in the ring. And the way after a casual move or duck he has to throw his arms back and head up in a Superman Takes Flight pose.

I totally remember that- one of the first times I ever felt sorry for a wrestler, though Dusty in polka dots with Sapphire is up there, too.

Kofi Kingston has become a bore, ever since he dropped the Jamaican gimmick. What's the point? The whole character (from the entrance to his finishing move) is based on his being from the island of paradise.
I've heard that his parents were angry at him for claiming he's from Jamaica, instead of Ghana. But, he's had that gimmick, since his bush-league days.

Kayfabing mom & dad...

When he first arrived, he beat the Undertaker like a red-headed stepchild (and 'Taker actually has red hair).
A clean win over the Deadman at Judgment day, no less.

Yet another dumbass move by creative.

Not really!! Khali was what I call a "Super-destroyer" heel. For the first 6-12 months, they beat up everyone in sight. Then, they start to fade.
WWE does/did that a lot. From Earthquake, to Vader, to Kane, to Umaga and, of course, Khali.

I dunno. I just couldn't get into him. Punch, chop, kick....choop...repeat.. .Thene they really killed it when they made him face as "The Punjaby Playboy". Ugh...
Big show is huge and at least he does a lot more shit and more entertaining.
-
I couldn't stand the Lex Express.
You & me both. It was a desperate attempt by WWE to make him into the big face hero like Hogan. That sure as hell didn't work.
-
Right now:
Kofi
Nexus/Corre and anyone who has been part of them - Barrett and Punk excepted, I have no time for the rest of them. Although saying that, I quite like Zeke Jackson, they could do something with him, as long as they keep him off the mic.
McIntyre
Kozlov
DH Smith or Tyson Kidd
Sheamus
Pretty much any of the lower card guys, there's only one or two who show any potential.

Anyone see the promo when HHH and Kofi were in the ring, Kofi starts talking perfect english and HHH says "Hey didn't you have an accent?"
Also who would win in a match, Khali vs Giant Gonzalez?........no one they would both put each other to sleep

Khali would win hands down.
From what I hear, Gonzalez isn't looking so hot these days.
-
It seems strange that were all pointing to Kofi, yet creative have him wearing a strap right now. The desperate move of rotating the title reigns that has become customary within the last decade is a real slap in the face to any champion that earned his spot back in the day.
It's easier to list the wrestlers that i can actually get into however the worst ones right now IMo are:
Kofi, Dolph, Samoa Joe, both Hardy's, Daniel Bryan, both Dynasty members, TNA's Anderson (WWE's used to be amazing)......actually this list is going to take quite some time

Vince tries to keep a strap on an african american or foreign national due to problems he had in the past with EOC.......sounds crazy but very true.
-
Kozlov could have had the strap but his character was buried (surprise surprise) and is now a laughing stock. If he wants to put over an AA then surely Jackson could be the man to lead the way? Keep him as a quiet killer type, few words and all action - he has the size and presence to carry it off with the right backstage support.
The 1 character i couldnt buy above all was Umaga, from the moment he debuted all i could think of was 3 second warning. His spike was ridiculous and his aura of invincibility offended me as i dont see why he was pushed so hard only to be buried (a'la Kozlov)
-
kofi kingston, i turn off the tv every time hes on.

Khali would win hands down.

He was wheelchair bound last time I heard.

Oh, shit...sorry, man - I was being sarcastic.
Gonzalez passed away last Fall.
Mass posted it on here.
I thought you knew!
LOL!!!

Did he really? Wow. Last time I checked on him he was wheelchair bound suffering bad from diabetes. RIP Giant G. I can't remember seeing it. oh well.

Are you kidding? Umaga was great, especially when he has "Arrrrrrrmandooooooo Alejaaaaaaaandooooooo Essssstttaaaaaaaaaaadaaa aa" as his manager.
He was like a cross between the Tazmanian Devil and Rikishi. Think about it. Jeff Hardy didn't really get the singles push he did, until his feud with Umaga.
-
Jeff Jarrett. I see nothing about him that merits main event status.

Funny you mention that.
I never cared for Jarrett, either.
In fact, I didn't even care enough about him to place him on this list until you brought it up. LOL
His ring work is nothing spectacular.
And, that southern dialect kind of kills his delivery in promos.

And this is the exact reason why he fits in better with TNA and the old WCW back in the day. In WWE, as Honky TOnk Man put it, his best noteriety was only when he had "the big titted broad"...aka Debra.
